What Is Glory?
When you win a game, achieve an athletic goal, shine in a performance, or break a record, your natural response as a competitor is to want the credit and whatever reward is attached to that success. Another way you might describe it is “glory.” But it’s when you find yourself chasing glory that it becomes a problem. It puts you out of balance with God’s plan, which is to give Him all the glory for what He has done for you and through you. Learn how to go from chasing a glory that doesn’t last to living out the glory of God for eternal impact.
You don’t have to shy away from glory; you just need to reorient Who gets it.
Chasing Glory
When Christ resets my perspective, I'm free in Him.
Isaiah 43:7
"Everyone who is called by My name, Whom I have created for My glory, I have formed him; yes, I have made him."
Revealed Glory
I'm created for God's glory, not chasing my own.
John 1:14
"The Word became flesh and made his dwelling among us. We have seen his glory, the glory of the one and only Son, who came from the Father, full of grace and truth."
Reflecting Glory
God's glory is revealed to me through Jesus, and I can have a relationship with Him.
Corinthians 3:18
“…And we all, who with unveiled faces contemplate[a] the Lord’s glory, are being transformed into his image with ever-increasing glory, which comes from the Lord, who is the Spirit.
Lasting Glory
When my hope is in God's lasting glory, I will seek His Kingdom first.
Matthew 6:33
"But seek first his kingdom and his righteousness, and all these things will be given to you as well.
